As part of Mental Health Week, the Shire of Northam is proud to share the Holyoake Agriculture & Agri-Business Wellbeing Factsheet—a valuable resource designed to support the mental health of our farming and agri-business communities.
We recognise that those working in agriculture are among the most resilient and hardworking people in our region. Yet, the pressures of unpredictable seasons, financial uncertainty, and isolation can take a toll. This factsheet offers practical insights into understanding stress and situational distress, especially during challenging times.
It also includes helpful strategies to manage mental wellbeing and encourages open conversations with family, neighbours, friends, or health professionals. If you're feeling overwhelmed or struggling, please remember:
Help is always available. You are not alone.
Let’s continue to support each other and build a community where mental health is a shared priority.
